PowerConnect 3324/3348 Release Notes
Known Restrictions and Limitations
Layer2
Combo ports
Title Description
Stacking member combo port with LAG
100/full/no negotiate loses link after
reload
PowerConnect 3324/3348 stack member copper combo port set to 100/full
duplex/no negotiation with LAG connected to PowerConnect 3248 or 3024 does not
regain link after reloading.
General
Title
Description
Ping % loss of packets display issue Port transition to forwarding state will take 30 secs. But it is not related the %loss
display when "ping" is terminated. Packet % loss is always displayed as 100% even
though a single packet is lost. The calculation of % loss might be wrong or wrong
value is displayed.
Combo port failover from fiber to copper
triggers STP
If a combo port is connected to another switch with both fiber and copper, the fiber
takes precedence. If the fiber link is removed, spanning tree activates and the link
will be down until STP has converged. When the fiber is reinserted, STP is not
triggered, but traffic transitions to the fiber link. Removing the fiber link should
ideally not cause STP to converge, just as adding the fiber link does not.
RMON Counter Rollover value issue RMON rollover is not happening. Counter value is constant once it reaches the
value 2147483647.This issue is observed for per port and per port channel also.
Oversized packets counter is not getting
updated.
Oversized packets counter is not incrementing. It is displaying zero
WBI - Improperly applying RADIUS
response on login
When authenticating using RADIUS, only the Cisco av-pair attribute is used to
determine access-level priveleges. In result, when the account has been configured
using standard IETF attributes rather than the Cisco specific attributes, an account
with only level 1 privilege is granted full access to the WBI. This includes the ability
to change settings.
Unwanted message is displayed for
"show logging" command always.
Unwanted message is displayed for "show logging" command always.
GARP timer configuration issue. In GARP leaveAll timer configuration, switch is not allowing to configure value up to
leave timer value + 9. Switch is allowing with difference between leave and leaveALl
timer as 10. Ex: Leave timer – 5000 leave all timer – 5010 and join timer value
as 200.
Config shows multiple Obsolete settings
for a single port in LAG setup
When configuring Link Agg, I get multiple 'obsolete' port speed settings showing in
the configuration. For example ( see attachments below ) my port-channel 1 is
showing in the config at speed 1000 ( meaning it is forced ), the ports that make up
port-channel 1 are ( 2/g1,3/g1) and they are showing in the config to be set to speed
100 ( forced ). However, when you do a "show status " command on either the
port-channel or the individual ports, you will see that they are both actually running
with ' Negotiation ' ENABLED
QoS WRR configuration is not effective. Traffic is not distributed as per the mapped priorities and queues and their
corresponding WRR values.
WRR configuration is effective when all priorities packets are sent with 100%
utilization (100 Mbps) speed from SMB. In other cases, the traffic distribution is
happening based on percentage of speed at which the packets were sent, but not
on the WRR configurations.
Changing user password silently changes
priviledge level
From CLI changing a users password with level 15 privilege is silently changing the
priviledge level to 0. Changing the variable, "password" should not change the
priviledge level. Testing from WBI does NOT have this same affect, and also
testing of other third party vendors does not result in this variable being changed.
Work Around. When Changing Password, user need to set the level 15
Example username dell password dell level 15
